It rained today and the first 2 rows of parking had deep puddles that were hard to avoid getting in and out of the car. No need to get there early. Lots of spots left at show time. Staff are friendly and helpful, except the staff taking the cash on the way in did not have a mask on.

I am absolutely appalled at how a horrible ‘worker’ spoke to me and my partner last night. Another jobs worth came up to us and asked us to move even though the ugly canteen was now in our way. Then an extremely aggressive old man cane up to us and literally started shouting at us to move and actually pointing at us right in the face so we said ‘you’re not socially distant right now’ and this idiot seriously turns around and says ‘that doesn’t matter, this is our rules’. Yeah you really care about the virus don’t you!
I think somebody misses speaking to people like they are trash because he clearly has nothing good in his life and you could tell he loved talking down to us. So we actually ended up leaving and the you could tell the owner didn’t want the trouble but because this worker was so stupid he just gave in and let us go. What a great worker you have there guys. Is he worth losing customers over?! I honestly don’t understand how he even got a job, especially one where he has to talk to people. What a disgusting human being! To the drive in valley theatre; if you’re paying him more than $2 an hour then you’re giving him $2 an hour more than he’s worth.
Also the screen is insanely small and like a said before, they thought it would be a great idea to put a horrible, ugly canteen right in the middle so that the best seats are blocked by it. That makes so much sense.

During the time of COVID-19, I've missed movie theatres. Thankfully, there's an option in the Valley Drive-In. During a weekend in the Annapolis Valley, the drive-in was a great way to spend a night.
For a couple the cost was only $20 (taxes in!) and the canteen had a ton of affordable snacks. I'd been craving popcorn 🍿so this was a great treat.

This was my first time at a drive in theatre. I was impressed with the staff, the quality of the food, and the whole experience in general, really. The prices for concessions are MORE than fair for the portion size you get. The staff seem helpful to new people as they have rules about headlights and how to park. We saw Spiderman (didn't stay for the second show - next time!) and it was awesome. This is a well kept attraction, and for the price you really can't have complaints. I wish they started the movies earlier but it makes sense why you can't have an outdoor screen showing a movie in daylight. Would be hard to see anything!

This is such a great place if you like the idea of a outdoor movie. I have also taken my Grandaughter there and she loved it as well. Nice Canteen and washrooms as well a 50/50 draw. At least once a season they have retro night and lots of folks dress up for this. Alot of fun.

Hubby and I relived our teenage years at this drive in. Was so cool lol. Upon arrival, he gave us a bag to put our garbage in which I thought was nice of him. Although crowded when we arrived had no problem finding.a good place to park. They have kids activities before movies start which is also good, keeps them from.being bored. Was a line up for canteen, but it moved quickly. Food was cheap. Only issue we had was when u ordered a cheeseburger, they gave u the burger with the slice of cheese still in the plastic. But u got alot for your money.

This is great place to come either on your own, with a date or with your family. And a great way to support the local community. We always have to have their homemade fresh cut French fries, they are the absolute best. And the popcorn is movie-theatre popcorn, also really good of course. A fun night.

We always go every summer. Start time is late of course because summertime it is light out for so long. Usually play a child friendly movie first then a more mature one afterwards. Bring blankets , pillows, camp chairs and bug spray! We send the kids to the back seat to sleep once the first movie is finished and stay for the second feature. Food is good and larger portions. Get there early and get your food because the lines can be quite long.
